Audix, a leading US manufacturer of microphones and wireless microphone systems for the installed sound and professional audio markets, is now shipping the A127 Omnidirectional Metal Film Condenser Microphone for critical recording applications.
The announcement states, “The A127 is the culmination of years of research and development in condenser technology and is designed to capture acoustic instruments with transparency, accuracy and purity. Utilizing a reference-grade, half-inch Type 1 metal film capsule, the omnidirectional A127 delivers unmatched audio capture for professional studio recording, broadcast, film and sound design.”
The A127 features a frequency response of 10Hz-20kHz, a wide dynamic range of 133dB and an ultra-low self-noise of 7dBA. The capsule design features a precision-tuned, 3-micron metal diaphragm. The A127 circuit is coupled to the capsule by a series of driven shields to protect the microphone from external interference and capacitive coupling. The mechanical components of the gold-plated shield and the corrosion-resistant housing are precision-machined by Audix in Wilsonville, Oregon.
“The A127 offers an exceptional level of detail and realism owing to its half-inch Type 1 metal film reference-grade capsule,” says Steve Johnson, VP of Sales and Marketing at Audix. “Featuring low-noise circuitry and innovative driven-shield protection, the A127 accurately captures a wide dynamic range of acoustic sound sources—in both the near field and far field—without artifact.”
